Fellow of The Academy of Medical Sciences, United Kingdom

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Internal medicine

His main research concerns Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Genetic association and Quantitative trait locus. Many of his studies involve connections with topics such as Body mass index and Genetics. The concepts of his Genome-wide association study study are interwoven with issues in Coronary artery disease, Immunology, Allele frequency, FTO gene and Candidate gene.

Willem H. Ouwehand combines subjects such as Exon junction complex, Bioinformatics, Copy-number variation, Genetic epidemiology and Internal medicine with his study of Single-nucleotide polymorphism. His research in Genetic association focuses on subjects like SNP, which are connected to Diabetes mellitus genetics. His Quantitative trait locus research also works with subjects such as

  • Transcriptome that intertwine with fields like Induced pluripotent stem cell,
  • Allele that intertwine with fields like Genotype.

His most cited work include:

  • Genome-wide association study of 14,000 cases of seven common diseases and 3,000 shared controls (7922 citations)
  • Association analyses of 249,796 individuals reveal 18 new loci associated with body mass index (2348 citations)
  • Association analyses of 249,796 individuals reveal 18 new loci associated with body mass index (2348 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary areas of investigation include Genetics, Immunology, Platelet, Genome-wide association study and Molecular biology. His work is connected to Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Gene, Quantitative trait locus, Allele and Allele frequency, as a part of Genetics. His research in Single-nucleotide polymorphism intersects with topics in Body mass index, Genotyping and Haplotype.

His work deals with themes such as Integrin and Cell biology, which intersect with Platelet. His research investigates the connection with Genome-wide association study and areas like Genetic association which intersect with concerns in Bioinformatics. The study incorporates disciplines such as Epitope and Recombinant DNA in addition to Molecular biology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (65.91%)
  • Immunology (41.88%)
  • Platelet (39.45%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Genetics (65.91%)
  • Gene (29.87%)
  • Genome-wide association study (38.47%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His scientific interests lie mostly in Genetics, Gene, Genome-wide association study, Phenotype and Platelet. Within one scientific family, Willem H. Ouwehand focuses on topics pertaining to Cholesterol under Gene, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Drug metabolism. His Genome-wide association study research includes themes of Quantitative trait locus, Blood cell, Genetic association and Bioinformatics.

As a part of the same scientific study, Willem H. Ouwehand usually deals with the Phenotype, concentrating on Computational biology and frequently concerns with Cell type, RNA, Human Phenotype Ontology, Genomics and Epigenetics. His research investigates the connection between Platelet and topics such as Cell biology that intersect with problems in Innate immune system. His study in Allele is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Locus, Inflammatory bowel disease and Mendelian inheritance.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The Human Phenotype Ontology in 2017 (471 citations)
  • Unraveling the polygenic architecture of complex traits using blood eQTL metaanalysis (293 citations)
  • Common genetic variation drives molecular heterogeneity in human iPSCs (263 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Internal medicine

Willem H. Ouwehand mainly investigates Genetics, Genome-wide association study, Phenotype, Allele and Platelet disorder. Quantitative trait locus, Genome, Genetic architecture, Genomics and Systems biology are the core of his Genetics study. Willem H. Ouwehand interconnects Internal medicine, Genotyping, Genetic association and Locus in the investigation of issues within Genome-wide association study.

His Phenotype research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Germline, Myeloproliferative neoplasm, Genetic variation and Pathogenesis. His Allele research incorporates elements of DNA sequencing, Human genetics, Mendelian inheritance and Breakpoint. His research investigates the link between Platelet disorder and topics such as Bioinformatics that cross with problems in Blood Platelet Disorders.
